It's My Birthday, and YOU Get Presents!

Hi all! As you may have figured out, TODAY IS MY BIRTHDAY! And since I love, love, love birthdays, I've decided to celebrate it by hosting Slush Sleuth's very first giveaway!

Confetti all around!

For this giveaway you have the chance to receive signed copy of Robin Wasserman's Book of Blood and Shadow. If you haven't heard of it already, below is the publisher's summary of this new action-packed, buzz worthy YA.

It was like a nightmare, but there was no waking up. When the night began, Nora had two best friends and an embarrassingly storybook one true love. When it ended, she had nothing but blood on her hands and an echoing scream that stopped only when the tranquilizers pierced her veins and left her in the merciful dark.

But the next morning, it was all still true: Chris was dead. His girlfriend Adriane, Nora’s best friend, was catatonic. And Max, Nora’s sweet, smart, soft-spoken Prince Charming, was gone. He was also—according to the police, according to her parents, according to everyone—a murderer.

Desperate to prove his innocence, Nora follows the trail of blood, no matter where it leads. It ultimately brings her to the ancient streets of Prague, where she is drawn into a dark web of secret societies and shadowy conspirators, all driven by a mad desire to possess something that might not even exist. For buried in a centuries-old manuscript is the secret to ultimate knowledge and communion with the divine; it is said that he who controls the Lumen Dei controls the world. Unbeknownst to her, Nora now holds the crucial key to unlocking its secrets. Her night of blood is just one piece in a puzzle that spans continents and centuries. Solving it may be the only way she can save her own life.

Be sure to check back later this week for a post about my meeting with the lovely Robin Wasserman herself. But until then, be sure to enter the giveaway, and may the odds be ever in your favor!
